That seems to contradict the behavior of most big tech. Or anyone making someone fill our a re-captcha to use their site. Most companies hate their users and optimize to select those they can treat the worst. "Nudges" is another word for it.
A company like calendly telling people how they are supposed to use it as the post suggests, should be a non-starter, but experience suggests it's exactly the kind of thing a tech company would do.
- viraptor 4y agoThat's a misunderstanding of the business. All the bad stuff that happens has some reason behind it. Nobody adds recaptcha to the site because they think the users should be solving it. It takes time and money to implement, so it's done for specific reasons like spam prevention. If you can't connect the change to "how will it benefit the company", there's no reason for the change like one described here to happen.
